Good day Nairalanders,

What is the light situation in your area, just as the heading suggests.

In my office 🏬 Lekki phase1, light has been very bad, since last month, despite the fact that we are on Band A, we have been solely relying on generator from morning till night.

In my house at around Obalende, infact that one os worst, sometimes, I stay in the office late, so that once I enter house, just take my bath and sleep straight..

The most painful part is that, my inlaw who is from Oyo state are complaing bitterly that light might not even come for 2-3 month and when it does, it won't last more than 4hours and its gone..

We have a minister who is from Oyo state and can't even manage just a ministry and want to govern a whole state.

The light is really giving me a concern, mostly this festive period that alot of expenses is there, you will still be thinking of powering generator with high rate of fuel to welcome visitors..

It's really bad Nigerianns deserve better light for Xmas

Most times, I'm always frustrated, just light that is wasting in some underdeveloped African country is what is so difficult to give to Nigerians

Hope the Nepa boss in your area is not having close by fuel filling station sha

It is a situation. Thats the situation

It is very, very bad. You know what? The Minister is aspiring to be the governor of his state in 2027. Agbados won't ask questions. They won't even mind his abysmal performance . It is like they are cursed in APC

Iba ojo. Here our light is view once.

The painful thing is that no one knows which century or decade we will be having regular power supply in this country. Something smaller African countries have already achieved.

Nothing impressive about 'light' here in naija. they say light is a privilege and not your right

APC has added no value to this country since 2015. They've not achieved anything.

Living in Nigeria is like living in hell. Even the rich are living like a one eyed man amongst the blinds. Osogbo that used to hv very stable electricity during the PDP eras now rationing 2hrs a day light. Wetin APC wan use campaign in 2027 sef. Their only achievement so far the is yeye coastal road that adds no value to the common man. Awon eleriiiibuuu

Worse than ever!
Like what are the masses really enjoying

It has been terrible this December, we have not used up to 100 hours cumulatively.

Very bad.

Can you imagine, the light situation is very bad

Just madness
That's all I can say

Representing Aba
Minimum of 15 hours daily
Uratta feeder band B

Aba power kudos

Very very bad since December 1st. Only God knows what happened.

Very bad, imagine band A no light for straight 3 days. I wanted to open this thread earlier, but because of voltrons. How can 200 million be sharing 3900 mw and it will give 20 hours per day. Tinubu used everything to run us Street, fake promises.

Federal Ministry is not 'just'; the roles and responsibilities are larger than the states'

I just had to make that clear not to dispute your post. The man responsible for the ministry of power have being very very poor. So poor it'll be bad if he should take over the affairs of Oyo state too. It would be better to have someone that will follow in the footsteps of Gov. Makinde.

Ever since Abapower has done mass installation of prepaid metre, they have no choice but to provide relatively stable power.

Aba
Feeder Ukwa 33
Landmark: 8balls

It's like more than 18 hours a day. Then in a day for 1 week, there may be a significant lack of power for more than 20 hours or more.

Abapower is not covered by subsidy unlike other discos. Band B under Abapower is paying more than 200 naira per kWh.

We knew the nonsense they came up with earlier this year was a scam. Nonsense segregation as if that would resolve our electricity issues. Nonsense band A, B, C, D rubbish. Everything in the power ministry has been scam

Extremely poor!!!

I live on the Arapaja axis of Ibadan, Oluyole Local Government, and the power supply here is far worse than anyone should reasonably endure. Over 60% of residents in this neighbourhood now rely on solar or inverter systems. In my own case, I had to upgrade my inverter capacity in November just to power more appliances and get longer hours of electricity.

I visited the Agbowo area today, where residents lamented that electricity used to be very reliable, something I can personally attest to. However, since around June this year, supply has deteriorated to the point of embarrassment. While electricity appears stable in a few selected areas in Ibadan, one must ask: why should access to power be selective? I have not even consumed up to fifteen thousand naira (₦15,000) worth of electricity in my fully equipped three-bedroom apartment in the entire year 2025, an indication of just how terrible the power supply has been.

If a state represented by the current Minister of Power can suffer this level of neglect, especially a state he aspires to govern, then it would be deeply misguided for the people of Oyo State to entrust such leadership with the governorship. Although I may have a soft spot for the APC, it is certainly not unconditional. God forbid that Adelabu becomes our governor.

I think there is national energy crisis at the moment which I'm very sure that some people know the cause

Bad o I'm happy tomorrow is weekend cause as a remote worker it is affecting me
